Three Tier Architecture means having a separate Database, Application Server and Client
Database (it stores the data)
A SQL Server Database it hold all our entered /captured data,
It is used by Microsoft Dynamics AX application
it also stored application elements
Microsoft Dynamics AX database
It is Online Transactional Processing (OLTP) database that stores all business data in tables
This database also stores all of the metadata and application code in the Model Store
BI (Business Intelligence database)
Some BI components requires SSRS and SSAS,
SSAS database is replicated from OLTP database in database format that optimized for
fast reporting and analysis
It stores all business data in SQL tables
Application Server ( Application Business Logic)
AOS (Application Object Server) is a service that runs most of the business logic
It runs on central server
Client (Client Application allows users to connect to server to access business logic
It is user interface through which end-user accesses Microsoft Dynamic Axapta Application

Extended Architecture
Other components used in a typical deployment
SSRS (SQL Reporting Services)
It Delivered reports, ssrs components included in SQL Server
BI ( Business Intelligence)
It is key performance indicator use Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) cubes,
It is delivered by SSAS (SQL Analysis Services), SSAS components included in SQL Server
EP (Enterprise Portal) and Role Page are hosted in sharepoint
Integration with other application or third party organization required integration solution such as web services
Typical system architecture includes other components of the Microsoft technology
